SUMMARY:From Data to Action: How APSViz Powers Hurricane Prediction and Pol
 icy Decisions
DESCRIPTION:As hurricane seasons become increasingly unpredictable\, timely
  and accurate information is crucial for policymakers and response teams. 
 Join us for an in-person panel discussion at RENCI\, where experts will di
 ve into the transformative power of APSViz—a state-of-the-art tool for v
 isualizing coastal hazards and supporting policy decisions during hurrican
 e events.\n\nDr. Brian Blanton (RENCI) will kick off the session with an i
 ntroduction to the ADCIRC Prediction System (APS)\, a cloud-ready data\, v
 isualization\, and information delivery system. APS computes and dissemina
 tes real-time coastal hazards information. A key component of this system 
 is APSViz\, a web portal developed by RENCI’s Earth Data Science group t
 hat visualizes these complex computer simulations. \n\nDr. Cassandra Davis
  and Dr. Evan Johnson from the Department of Public Policy will offer thei
 r unique perspectives on the value of APSViz in public policy research and
  its contributions to smarter\, data-driven decisions for disaster respons
 e in North Carolina and beyond.\n\nThe discussion will conclude with a Q&A
  session\, moderated by Dr. Ashok Krishnamurthy\, RENCI Director\n\nZoom L
 ink\nIn-Person Registration
